stay close to anything that makes you glad to be alive

I am Thankful For…

I have basically idolized you since the first day of swim team in 2010, but you already knew that. I am thankful that over the past six years we have remained so close. You are like the big sister I never had, and the big sister that my parents love more than me sometimes. You never cease to amaze me with your dedication to all that you do. You inspire me every day to be a better person and to work towards what I want. You are family to the Holly’s. You are one of my best friends and you have always looked out for me. Whether its in the pool, school or love life stuff, you’re always right there to pick me up. You are the only person in the world I know who would drive 2.5 hours to play five water polo games in a day and drive back that same night. Thank you for teaching me the love of the game and continuing to love the game with me. I appreciate our hikes we do together, even though some are absolute hell when we don’t think it’ll be that bad. Thanks for always reminding me how stupid I am for doing headstands next to edges of cliffs, one day I will listen I promise 🙂

I am thankful for YOU. I love you, Lo! I always will, you’re stuck with me and all of my craziness now!
